Avantages

Nothing as such is positive

Inconvénients

Lots: 1. The culture is completely toxic across all functions. 2. Leadership team role changes in every 3 years thus each leader prepares strategy which are for short term benefit, ignoring the long term interest of the organisation. 3. Favouritism is at its peak. People with zero technical skills can reach higher position while some people with good technical struggle to get a promotion. 4. There is no data in the company across all functions for any kind of analysis 5. Forget about work life balance, you'll keep on working and there will be zero recognition for the good work you'll be do. 6. Manager do not have leadership skill, they keep on thinking about their benefit and promotion and don't focus on subordinate's development.

Avantages

- Company car (fuel card, insurance, etc) - Good benefits - Great brand exposure/understanding of CPG sales at the retail level - Annual sales meeting is fun, but exhausting - Simple job

Inconvénients

- Micromanaged by leadership (EVERYTHING is tracked) - Extremely repetitive work (not much freedom in creating your schedule, same tasks over and over, etc.) - Dealing with retail management. If you don't have respectful store managers, good luck. A lot of your KPI's are out of your control and your experience relies on your store. - As DOZENS of other people have said, this is a merchandising job - not sales. You are responsible for placing product on the sales floor after consulting with the store (basically asking management who only views you as free manual labor). There is no commission/incentive for producing positive results. - SEASONS: this is the reason why you have this job if you're working with the Walmart channel. You have unrealistic expectations set from leadership to pack out hundreds of heavy cases of candy each holiday season after begging store management for space to place it. Most of the stores' back rooms are a complete mess and a lot of your product is inaccessible. Long days are expected with no additional pay. - Work/life balance: It is frowned upon to work the bare minimum of 40 hours/week. Your stores get backed up while you're on PTO. Overall: an okay role This isn't a bad job by any means, you just need to know what the role entails before taking this job. You need to relocate for any future opportunities within the company.
